Linux and Terminal Server

You have to get a client to run on Linux in order to work that way. I know that Citrix Metaframe has Linux clients and you can install and run them in linux to connect to a Metaframe server. They are downloadable from the Citrix Site www.citrix.com.I don't think standard microsoft Term Servers have clients for Linux

Cheers ....

The answer above is correct - Windows Terminal Server only includes clients for Win95/98, NT4 and Win2K. For all other OS, (including MSDOS and Win31) you have to implement Citrix on top of Terminal Services and use the Citrix ICA client.

I think it's fair to predict that Microsoft won't provide any support to Linux in the near future and I don't see a Linux Terminal Services client being released.... probably ever.

I did have a thought, though. Has anyone tried running the Terminal Client under one of the Windows emulation environments (WINe) or VMWare? That might work... if I get the chance to try it any time soon, I'll let you know.

Hello,

Search at www.freshmeat.net, it is a TS client for Linux. (I think it's name is rdesktop).
